Let me correct you. Libertarian ideals have moved sharply to the left in recent years. I’d say they’ve always been leftist and not truly conservative.

I’d further say that even William F Buckley was a social liberal and I have no use for libertarians.

Now having said that, I think it’s time we adapt to the changes and use 21st century websites on a 20th century site like Free Republic to the best of our abilities.

For instance, when I see a Breitbart article or a Fox News article that references a video and you have to click through to the link to two or three pop-ups to two or three more advertisements before you can even watch the video, that is pretty much a useless endeavor . The easiest way to watch that video is on x.com.

Now, having said that I will agree that most Freepers have no idea on how to access current videos on x.com but that’s another problem for another day

I’ve never seen a pop-up on either Breitbart or Fox News. Are you the last person in the world not using some form of ad blocking?

Indeed. Which is suicidal. Along with radical isolationists, who imagine (among other things) letting the Houtis (via Iran) radically increase insurance costs on shipping does not effect them. And devout Putin protectors, vs. objectivity.

Not being able to post/play short videos here is a negative, while via just play on my X feed. Almost all are not worthy to share, or even watch.
